caption_attribution_description: Zero emission Electric vehicle "Kaz", at National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation on 30 sep 2004, was developed by Keio University in Japan. This vehicle can run at 310km/h. 時速310kmで走れる電気自動車Kaz。日本科学未来館での展示。2004年9月30日撮影。慶応大学 環境情報学部 電気自動車研究室 開発。
context_page_description: The Eliica is a battery electric vehicle prototype or concept car first shown in 2004 and designed by a team at Keio University in Tokyo, led by Professor Hiroshi Shimizu. The 5.1 m car runs on a lithium-ion battery and can accelerate from 0–100 km/h in four seconds. In 2004, the Eliica reached a speed of 370 km/h on Italy's Nardò High Speed Track. The team's goal is to exceed 400 km/h, breaking the record set by today's street-legal gasoline-powered vehicles.
  Shimizu's new project is called "SIM-Drive", with wheel hub motors.
context_section_description: The Eliica is a refinement of the earlier KAZ (Keio Advanced Zero-emission vehicle), a 6.7 m (22 ft) limousine-sized 8-wheel 8-person electric vehicle prototype of 2003 that also set speed records.
